Combination bat warmer/seat cushion

Abstract

A bat warmer seat cushion device that includes a first side and a second side and includes at least one elongated cylindrical sleeve member disposed within the bag, the sleeve member sized and shaped for receiving a bat. The sleeve member includes an open end that is generally aligned with an open end of the first side. A soft sleeve is disposed within each sleeve member, the soft sleeve having an open end aligned with the first side's open end. Insulating material is disposed around the sleeve member that provides thermal protection for the encased bats. The entire bag includes an outer layer and insulating padding sandwiched between the outer layer and the components of the present invention. The bag with the outer layer and insulating padding can serve as a seat cushion which allows a spectator to view an event more comfortably.

I claim:

 a bag that includes at least one spacing that extends the length of the bag, said bag having a substantially flat top, a bottom, first and second sides, and wherein each of said at least one spacings include an aperture disposed in said first side, a cylindrical sleeve disposed within each of said at least one spacings, said cylindrical sleeve extends from said first side to said second side and includes an open end aligned with said aperture, and an insulating material disposed between the cylindrical sleeve and an outer layer of said bag. 
 
     
     
       2. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 1 , further including a second sleeve disposed within said cylindrical sleeve, said second sleeve having an open end aligned with said aperture and attached to said first side. 
     
     
       3. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 2 , said second sleeve having a closed end opposite said open end of said second sleeve, said closed end attached to said second side. 
     
     
       4. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said insulating material is wrapped around said cylindrical sleeve. 
     
     
       5. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 4 , further including insulating padding disposed between said insulating material and said outer layer. 
     
     
       6. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 5 , wherein the bag has a rectangular configuration. 
     
     
       7. A combination bat warmer seat cushion device comprising:
 a bag that includes at least one spacing that extends the length of the bag, said bag having a top, a bottom, a first side and a second side, and wherein each of said at least one spacings include an aperture disposed in said first side, 
 an elongated cylindrical sleeve member disposed within each spacing, said cylindrical sleeve having an interior cavity sized and shaped to receive a bat and further includes an open end that is generally aligned with said aperture, 
 a second sleeve disposed within each sleeve member, said second sleeve sized for receiving the bat within the sleeve member, and wherein said second sleeve having an open end that is generally aligned with said aperture and attached to said first side, and a closed end attached to the second side, 
 an insulating material wrapped around said sleeve member, 
 insulating padding sandwiched between said insulating material and an outer layer of said bag. 
 
     
     
       8. The device as recited in  claim 7 , wherein the bag is a rectangular shaped bag. 
     
     
       9. The device as recited in  claim 8 , wherein said bottom includes at least one arm strap employed to support the device on a user's back or shoulder. 
     
     
       10. The device as recited in  claim 9 , further including a handle disposed on an end of said bag. 
     
     
       11. The device as recited in  claim 10 , further including a flap disposed on said first side releasabiy secured in place for enclosing the separate apertures and the interior cavity. 
     
     
       12. A bat warmer seat cushion device comprising:
 a bag having a substantially flat top, a bottom, first and second sides, and wherein said first side includes at least one aperture, 
 a sleeve member disposed within said bag, said sleeve member extending from said first side to said second side and having an open end aligned with said at least one aperture, 
 an insulating material disposed around said sleeve member. 
 
     
     
       13. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 12 , further including a second sleeve disposed within the sleeve member, said second sleeve having an open end aligned with said at least one aperture and attached to said first side. 
     
     
       14. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 13 , said second sleeve having a closed end opposite said open end of said second sleeve, said closed end attached to said second side. 
     
     
       15. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 14 , further including an insulating padding disposed between the insulating material and the outer layer. 
     
     
       16. The bat warmer as recited in  claim 15 , wherein the bag has a rectangular configuration.
